I could see a situation where you want the LLM to take a guess, compare it to a calculation, and if they differ, analyze whether it misinterpreted the question. Obviously, it could misinterpret the question, feed the wrong info to the calc

they also struggle to know when to break the rules of english, make up words, introduce pun, bounce between tones, write with subtext, introduce absurdity, allude to other ideas etc. I'd say its less the work they have been trained on,

It is a great word spoken. Written it is visually identifiable as a symbol. It also seems to break every rule of naming, and is almost nonsensical.

because then the press wound still refer to it as twitter. who calls alphabet alphabet? meta ended up slightly better only because they had three or four really strong consumer brands.

You have it backwards. 230 is about who is NOT liable. Platforms are NOT liable for what they don't moderate, just because they moderated other things. It protects them from imperfect moderation being used to claim endorsement.

That's why I proposed the paradox. At what tipping point does the arranger become the speaker? Read 230. https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/47/230 "No provider or user of an interactive compute

That is the entire point of 230. You can remove whatever you want for whatever reason, and what you leave up doesn't make you the speaker or endorser of that content. Taken to the extreme it obviously leaves a window for a crazy abuse

Id like to propose something akin to the Ship of Theseus Paradox: lets call it the Ransom Letter Paradox. At what point do newspaper clipping arranged together become the work of the arranger and not the individual newspapers. If I take on

chicken and egg. You need people to use it to have value. It needs to have value for people to use it. The use/value proposition will tilt towards it as a generation turns over from people who grew up with search to people who grew up

chat has become a limiting factor. its both too linear, and hard to revise. it's hard to undo parts of the conversation that poison it. it's too hard to save important bits that shouldn't be forgotten or drowned out. its n

analytics aka telemetry in this case are for the design of the product itself no? if they can preserve privacy, you dont want them to be able to see how people use their software?

There is a secondary issue of LLM's taking questions literally, and not really being able to (at the moment) deny the premise of a question. For example, if you google benefits of circumcision, the LLM will quite literally print all t

It might follow to say that current LLM;s arent trained to generate papers, BUT they also don't really need to reason. They just need to mimic the appearance of reason, follow the same pattern of progression. Ingesting enough of what

In theory, this would become some type of exploitable game theory. Send out offer letters to companies most indispensable people, just to jack up your competitors labor costs. Arms race. Eventual mutually assured destruction.

Imagine in the physical world. You put something in a storage locker with a key. Someone nefarious asks you for the key, and steals your things out of the storage locker. Then you blame the storage locker for unlocking to your key.

Even past quick cuts, you have literal narrative shift. MTV, America's funniest home videos, TikTok are little bite site stories in rapid succession.

And time. An account otherwise identical made two days later is going to interact with a different stream. Technically deterministic but in practice no two end up ever being exactly alike, (despite similar people having similar channels.)

If one were to subscribe to such a distinction between algorithmic ranking and algorithmic suggestions I would liken it with a broad paintbrush to: Ranking: A group of people share a ouija board, and together make selections. Suggestion: A

not all alumni email addresses are .edu. which actually turns out to be a win, because because they arent tied to the university itself, they can impose a 5gb cap, stop accepting new alumni, and carry on. and a .com is often easier to say

Similarly, you could run a very very simple game engine, that outputs little more than a low resolution wireframe, and upscale it. Put all of the effort into game mechanics and none into visual quality. I would expect something in this rea
